I got the same thing in 2017, I got got three instead of two. AOS/EOS/COS Adjustment of Stay Extention of Stay Change of Stay/Status When I asked the CBP officer, and I was told that If I am allowed into the U.S. for the duration of months that intended to stay, I would have more presence in the United States in one year than my country of resident. And she was kind enough to advice me not to come visit United States in 6 months. My visa expired since last year but instead of using dropbox, I opted for visa interview. tzetzefly: |
Tobechuckwu:I do not need to study different textbooks when i know the RIGHT TEXTBOOK to use. It has been tested and it is found to be true. Fellowship does not equal relationship. You are such a confused fella. You can have relationship and not fellowship with the person. When you are living in London and your family is living in Lagos, Nigeria. You have relationship but not fellowshipping with them. Other versons are from the corrupt maniscript which Westcott abd Hort used for their selfish gain. Other versions taught works salvation, corrupted WORD OF GOD. |
Goldenfinger5:You are the one who is wrong. Hosen is also refer to as leggings. Which is equivalent to trousers for men. |
Tobechuckwu:There is a difference between fellowship and relationship. Use your dictionary. And mind you, i am King James Bible only, it is best and perfect translation that we have in English. Other translations are in erroneous. They have led so many people into errors. |
Show me a Bible verse that says Christianity is a about relationship with God. The word "relationship" is not even found in the Bible, not even one time. The question is, are those trousers modesty? 99% of clothing our women wear today are immodest even "skirt". If there is nothing modest about trouser, why should women wear it? |
I paid for my visa fee online through gtbank, what will I use as the proof of visa fee payment? Please help out. |
echepops:Not in Georgia but Kentucky |
My questions are: Can I opt for interview instead of Dropbox? I have used my visa two times, and it has recently expired. But now I want to travel with my wife and kids, and i want to attend interview with them. Do I have to create the Ustravel profile for each applicant or I can use my account for them? Thank you. |
Freeze is just a joke that knows nothing about this subject. If you want to know the truth, take your time and study the Bible yourself. And Don’t let Freeze foul you. Why Women Should Not Wear Head-Coverings 1Cor 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. 1Cor 11:4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head. 1Cor 11:5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. 1Cor 11:6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered. 1Cor 11:7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. 1Cor 11:8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. 1Cor 11:9 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man. 1Cor 11:10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels. 1Cor 11:11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord. 1Cor 11:12 For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God. 1Cor 11:13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered? 1Cor 11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him? 1Cor 11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. 1Cor 11:16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God. Some people have misinterpreted 1 Corinthians 11 and believe that it is commanding women to wear hats or "head-coverings" of some kind. In this chapter, God is dealing with gender roles and the authority that a man has over his wife. In verse 3, the authority that a man has over his wife is likened unto the authority that God has over a man. God is the "head" (authority figure) of the man, and the man is the "head" (authority figure) of the woman. This matches perfectly with what the Bible says in Ephesians 5: Eph 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Eph 5:24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. As we continue in 1 Corinthians 11, verses 4-6 state: 1Cor 11:4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head. 1Cor 11:5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. 1Cor 11:6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered. According to these verses women should have their heads "covered," and men should not. In fact, if a woman's head is not covered, that is just as bad as if she were "shorn" or "shaven." Notice that the Bible says that it is a "shame" for a woman to be shorn or shaven. We all know what "shaven" means, but what does the word "shorn" mean? The Bible uses the word "shorn" one other time in the New Testament: Acts 18:18 And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow. The vow that the Bible is referring to here is a Nazarite vow from the Old Testament. Notice what the Bible commands about the Nazarite vow in Numbers 6: Num 6:5 All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separateth himself unto the LORD, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow. Num 6:18 And the Nazarite shall shave the head of his separation at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall take the hair of the head of his separation, and put it in the fire which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings. Once again, the Bible is its own dictionary. Being "shorn" is another word for being "shaven." Paul having his head shaved with a razor is referred to as him being "shorn." Therefore God is saying that a woman being "uncovered" is just as shameful as her shaving her head completely bald as Paul did in Acts 18. So, what is this "covering"? 1Cor 11:13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered? 1Cor 11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him? 1Cor 11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. According to verses 13-15, a woman is "uncovered" if she does not have "long hair." A woman is therefore commanded to have long hair, and a man is commanded not to have long hair. Those who believe in women wearing external "head-coverings" or bonnets on their heads will argue that even though long hair is a covering (indefinite article), women still need to wear an additional covering or bonnet on their heads. This is easily disproved with the Bible. The same passage that tells women to be covered tells men not to be covered. Therefore, if this were talking about something other than long hair (i.e. a "head-covering" or bonnet), it would be a sin for a man to wear it while praying or prophesying. This is directly in contradiction with many Old Testament passages that command the Old Testament priests to wear bonnets and mitres while ministering in the priests office: Exo 28:40 And for Aaron's sons thou shalt make coats, and thou shalt make for them girdles, and bonnets shalt thou make for them, for glory and for beauty. Exo 28:41 And thou shalt put them upon Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him; and shalt anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office. Exo 29:9 And thou shalt gird them with girdles, Aaron and his sons, and put the bonnets on them: and the priest's office shall be theirs for a perpetual statute: and thou shalt consecrate Aaron and his sons. Exo 39:27 And they made coats of fine linen of woven work for Aaron, and for his sons, Exo 39:28 And a mitre of fine linen, and goodly bonnets of fine linen, and linen breeches of fine twined linen, Lev 8:13 And Moses brought Aaron's sons, and put coats upon them, and girded them with girdles, and put bonnets upon them; as the LORD commanded Moses. Eze 44:17 And it shall come to pass, that when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come upon them, whiles they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within. Eze 44:18 They shall have linen bonnets upon their heads, and shall have linen breeches upon their loins; they shall not gird themselves with any thing that causeth sweat. Notice that the priest's clothing consisted of coats, britches (pants), and bonnets. Why would God tell us that "nature itself" teaches us that a woman should wear a head-covering, and that men should not, when he commanded over and over again that the priests (who were men of course) were required to wear bonnets when they prayed and prophesied in the priests office! The covering referred to in 1 Corinthians 11 is long hair, as defined in the passage itself; it is not a bonnet or head-covering. This is consistent with the Old Testament, which commanded the priests not to have long hair: Eze 44:20 Neither shall they shave their heads, nor suffer their locks to grow long; they shall only poll their heads. They were commanded to be neither completely bald nor long-haired, but rather to "poll" (i.e. cut short the hair on) their heads. Other proponents of "head-coverings" on women will say that if you "go back to the Greek," you'll see that the word for "covering" in verse 15 is different than the other words used for "covering" in the passage. Of course, they are not fluent in Greek, but because the words look a lot different, they assume that they must be talking about completely different things. However, there are many examples in our language of words that look completely different as different parts of speech, but that are actually the same. Here are a few examples: - having faith (noun) means that you believe (verb). - being undressed (adjective) means you aren't wearing any clothes (noun). - doing something manually (adverb) means that you did it by hand (noun). - thing that are lunar (adjective) have to do with the moon (noun). You see how identical words can look completely different as different parts of speech. Therefore a woman can be uncovered (adjective - "akatakalypto" because she is not wearing a covering (noun - "peribolaion" . Just because the words look the same in English does not mean that they will look the same in Greek. Apparently these head-covering advocates who couldn't even order a meal in a Greek restaurant think they know more than the KJV translators. This is why one should always beware when anyone has to "go back to the Greek" to prove their doctrine. Now that we understand what "covering" is referring to in 1 Corinthians 11 (i.e. long hair), let's go back and look at the passage with this definition in mind: 1Cor 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. 1Cor 11:4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered (i.e. having long hair), dishonoureth his head (i.e. dishonours Jesus Christ - see previous verse). 1Cor 11:5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered (i.e. with short hair) dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. (i.e. if a woman doesn't have long hair, she might as well be bald!) 1Cor 11:6 For if the woman be not covered (i.e. she has short hair), let her also be shorn : but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered. (i.e. in God's eyes, it is just as much of a shame for a woman to have short hair, as it is for her to be completely shaved bald). Ladies are commanded by the Bible to have long hair. They are not commanded to wear an external head covering of any kind. If they do wear one, people will probably associate them with religions that preach a false Gospel. |
Okay. Thank you so much. Would that be a problem if he reapplies? The reason why I am asking is, since I have been reading this thread, everyone who gets denied will get a paper explaining why he was denied. But he didn't. Now, what would his reason for his denial since he was not given any paper. Anticipating for your respond. TWoods: |
Yesterday in Abuja, my brother had his F1 student visa interviewed, he was denied but not given any letter to explain why he was denied. When he requested, he was just asked to go, that he was denied. Please can anyone tell me what is going on? |

Can you please enlighten me why VO would asked a first time visa applicant whether he has applied before? It was the last question asked before telling him sorry as they used to say. |
Is she black lady? My brother was interviewed today by a black lady but he was not given in Abuja. ybahrbz91: |

I think it is very interesting on why this appears to be called a "deception". Think about it. If you can only have eternal life by repenting of sins and not living filthy, then technically you are saved by your works. You are saved because you are a good person. That is what this all comes down to. Well let me tell you, this is not the good news. Why? Because you are trusting in your own works other than the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Want to hear a fun fact? Most religions don't believe in eternal security. They believe you can lose it, if YOU AREN'T GOOD ENOUGH! The whole world teaches salvation by works! What a mind blower! You want to know what REALLY is the broad way? THIS is the broad way! Everyone teaches that you must be good to get into heaven! EVERYONE! Of course they won't come out and say that directly! They will cloak it under such wisdom of words! "Deny yourself!" Every religion believes in self denial! In reality GRACE is the narrow path! Why? Because it is all about TRUST! You have to TRUST CHRIST NO MATTER THE BEHAVIOR, NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCES! NO ONE wants to trust Jesus! If you are a believer of eternal security then you will be crucified by the self proclaimed Christians! Mostly them! They will say, "You're giving people a license to sin!", "Preach on sin more!", "You're just a feel good preacher!" Darn right I am! I AM A FEEL GOOD PREACHER BECAUSE JESUS IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD! He is the good news! Good news make people feel good! Does it not? Am I wrong? Otherwise good news wouldn't be called good news! ? Pride seems to be the issue. Satan ministers are ministers of righteousness! Of course his ministers will teach that YOU MUST WORK TO EARN ETERNAL LIFE! Anything besides BELIEVING THE GOSPEL ALONE to be saved! The enemy will do anything to get you not to trust in the Son! Those who trust in their own works; their end will be according to their obedience. Salvation loss = Salvation by works. Salvation loss is the deception. If the WHOLE WORLD teaches salvation by works, then what do you think is the narrow path? Grace thru Faith alone is the narrow road. Godbless. - Proof you can't lose salvation| Rom. 5:1, 8:29-39, 1 Cor 1:7-8, 2 Cor 5:6-8, Eph1:13, 4:30, Phil 1:6, 1 Peter 1:23, 2nd Tim 1:12, Heb 9:12, 13:5-6, 20-21, Rom 1:17, John 4:14, 5:24, 10:28, John 6:37-40, 17:2-3, 17:9-12 & 1 John 2:25, 5:11, Titus 1:2, Luke 19:10, Psalms 21:4, 37:28, Psalms 51:12, Psalms 89:32-34,94:12-14, 103:12, 121:7-8, 125:1, Col. 3:4, 1 Thes. 5:23, Rom 3:26, rom 3:28-30, rom 4:3-5, rom 4:11, rom 4:16, rom :1, rom 5:9, rom 8:1, rom 8:15-16, rom 9:16, Rom 9:30, rom 9:33, rom 10:4, 1 john 5:13, heb 10:38-39, acts 16:30-31, eph 1:12-14, Gal 2:16, Gal 3:24-26, phil 3:9, heb 11:17, hab 2:4, mark 1:15, luke 8:12, luke 7:50, john 1:12, john 3:14-18, john 3:36, john 5:24, john 6:35, john 7:38-39, john 8:24, john 11:25-26, john 12:44-46, john 14:16-17, john 14:23, john 16:27, john 19:30, john 20:31, acts 5:14, acts 10:43, acts 11:17-18, acts 11:21, acts 13:39, acts 13:48, acts 15:7-9, acts 26:18,rom 1:16-17, rom 4:9, rom 4:13, rom 5:2, rom 4:20-25, rom 10:11, rom 11:18-20, rom 11:29, 1 Cor 1:21, 2 Cor 1:22, 4:4, gal 2:20, gal 3:3, gal 6:8, gal 3:11, gal 3:14, gal 3:22, gal 5:5, eph 1:19, eph 2:8-9, eph. 2:18-19, eph. 5:29-30, 1 thes 2:13, 3:13, 2 thes 1:10, 2 thes 2:12, 1 tim 1:16, 1 tim 4:10, 2 tim 3:15, heb 3:18, heb 4:2, heb 4:3a, heb 7:21-22, heb.11:31, heb 10:38-39, heb 11:16, 1 peter 1:5, 1 peter 1:9, 1 peter 1:18-21, 1 peter 2:6-7, 1 john 5:1a, 1 john 5:4, 1 john 5:5, 1 john 5:10, Isaiah.43:13, 49:15, 51:6-8, 53:5, 54:8-10, Duet.31:6, Jer. 31:33-34, 32:40, 1.Cor.15:1-4, Lamen. 3:31,Rev.3:5. for more information http://fbcakure.org |

Psalms 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God. Jeremiah 3:21 A voice was heard upon the high places, weeping and supplications of the children of Israel: for they have perverted their way, and they have forgotten the LORD their God. Bad things happen, when a nation turns her back on God. It is tragic to see what our country has become, because our nation does not acknowledge God through their injustice and wickedness being done to innocent people. Then we do not appreciate the Word of God as the principles for guidance, and the way of God. Bad things happen when we move away from the Bible.

After Jesus clearly declared the truth to Pilate, he despondently responded to the Savior, “What is truth?” To Pilate, as to many people today, truth is subjective and relative. Others believe truth does not even exist at all. Still others believe truth is unknowable or unattainable. While this moral and theological relativism is becoming increasingly prevalent in our Western culture, godly men of the past also dealt with this crisis many years ago.

Then the king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him: and, behold, he sat on the top of an hill. And he spake unto him, Thou man of God, the king hath said, Come down. And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty, If I be a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty. Again also he sent unto him another captain of fifty with his fifty. And he answered and said unto him, O man of God, thus hath the king said, Come down quickly. And Elijah answered and said unto them, If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty.

One of the things the Christian struggles with is surrender. Even the world struggles with it when it comes to the gospel and salvation. Agrippa said “almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian” (acts 26:28). That is surrender there with an unbelieving man and he struggled with it. Surrender is to give up completely or agree to forgo especially in favor of another. While it is true that salvation is not of works (Eph 2:9, Acts 16:30-31), however, surrender is necessary as the sinner turns to Christ by faith for salvation.
